Hi all! I'll be graduating with my Women's Health Nurse Practitioner MSN degree this year. I'm having trouble finding a DNP program geared toward WHNP practice as a provider. Maybe I am confused 🤷🏽*♀️ but are there DNP program out there for WHNP who wish to earn the terminal nursing degree geared toward practice (and not research or executive leadership)? Thanks so much!

Most (all?) of the classes are leadership and program development classes, which can be applied to all specialties. My program has adult acute care, peds, psych, and adult primary care, but we all took those leadership/program classes together. We just chose projects within our area of interest/practice. So I personally don't see how it would matter, but I also don't know the post graduation side of it, whether a wh-specific dnp would matter for your work.
